Schoolhouse Peanut Butter Fingers: makes 2 pans

This recipe is from a girl named Teresa Jordan. It's the recipe that the lunch ladies used to make for us when we went to elementary. Those were the good 'ol days. Anyway, if you grew up in Utah, you know what ones I am talking about. The only thing is, it makes 2 PANS! But they're really good and are perfect to take to any family party!

Schoolhouse Peanut Butter Fingers

2 ¼ c. margarine
1 ½ tsp. vanilla
2 ¼ c. sugar
2 ¼ cup peanut butter
2 ¼ c. brown sugar
4 ½ cups flour
¾ tsp. salt
4 ½ cups oatmeal (not instant)
2 ¼ tsp. baking soda
5 eggs
Cream together the margarine, sugars, eggs, vanilla & peanut butter. Add the dry ingredients and mix well. Batter will be thick. Divide the batter between two large silver cookie sheets. Spread and pat down. Bake at 325 degrees until the top gets slightly browned (usually takes between 15-25 min. depending on your oven). Only bake one pan at a time. Cool and Frost. Cut in bars. Make sure and frost with the Fudge Frosting below! YUMMY!
